The guide did not show up. We were not notified in advance that the tour had been cancelled. As a result, we arrived 30 min early and waited 30 min more for nothing. We had to contact TripAdvisor directly to try to get a refund as the operator was not responding. We have yet to receive a full refund. Horrible business operation for innocent travellers hoping to spend hard-earned money on a once in a lifetime experience. Avoid this tour period.
